Tommy: From Jersey to Jacket
Date: 1970s
Although Tommy Heinsohn traded in his jersey for a jacket and tie, his intensity as a Celtics player translated seamlessly to his new role as head coach in 1969. After winning eight NBA World Championship titles as a player with the Celtics, Heinsohn added two more coaching the team in the 1970s.
